Opened initially for the children of staff working for the
Overseas
Food Corporation "Ground Nut Scheme",
it had by January 1950, become a day and boarding school for students
from all regions of Tanganyika.
In 1953 the old Head Quater Buildings of the OFC became the Senior
Scool.
Student numbers were increasing and by 1955 the school was occupying
most of the
buildings in Kongwa.
Mnyakongo Primary School which now occupies the site, was built on
the foundations of the two original buildings.
